In the MMO shooter Destiny , Xur, Agent of the Nine, appears on Friday, September 4th, in the Tower or the Reef. What exotic armors and weapons does he have this time? And how will he be in Year 2 of Destiny?
What do we know about Xur in The Taken King? What is changing?
A lot is already known about Xur, the Agent of the Nine, in Year 2, but nothing is set in stone yet. It is known that he will continue to appear, he will offer “a certain number of exotic items,” and he is still expected to like strange coins. Everything sounds like it does now.
Two changes are known:
- Xur will offer “Legacy Engrams” that will drop Year 1 Exotics – this is particularly interesting for collectors.
- And the item “Three of Coins” is also newly in his offer. When Guardians use it, they receive a higher probability of an exotic item from the next boss they face.
But we will probably have to wait to see which Year 2 Exotics he really has on offer. At the moment, it seems that almost all of the new weapons are tied to bounties. Traditionally, Xur cannot sell bounty weapons. It will be interesting to see how this plays out in the new year. One possibility would be that he no longer sells weapons at all, but only armor pieces.
